Stayed there a couple of times, and made a couple of day trips up there in the late 1990s from PV, when there was almost no development.

Worth it.

Not necessarily tonight though. He changes up mid game a lot for a coach.

Gio and Lil have been really good

McCabe and Brodie are probably a good fit

Blame Kyle not Keefe

Yeah I'll blame whoever I want thanks.

I don't blame either.

Its the cards he had tonight, it made sense to keep Gio/Lil together and on paper McCabe and Brodie is the shutdown pairing to try.

- Santo_44


Yeah except Rielly has been better with Liljegren than anyone, and Holl has been really good with Giordano. So there's no need.

Good to know. Thanks.

I lived in China and Russia so I’m definitely familiar with staying on the appropriate path. Always good to know though

Nope. Neither of your statements are correct. At all.

Coches change lines when down a lot of goals.

They try different things.

We disagree, move on and dont call me names thanks.

Have a good one.

- Santo_44




Some coaches will change lines up mid for a number of reasons. Not just being down a goal. Some don’t…so not every coach does this.

Its not a disagreement. You are stating something that is untrue. You’re wrong. There are a lot of opinions and no right one a lot of the time with hockey. The point you were making (EVERY coach switches things at same clip)was wrong though. It would be like having an opinion that Wayne wore 98. He did not.
I will stop calling you names when you stop telling me what to do.

GM: attempts to build a roster that can compete and has depth…check

Coach: utilizes the roster put together and inputs a system and lines to compete. He prepares the players…we will see

Players: perform…we will see

So, I am aware the GM puts the team together. He has. He has done well. Now up to Coaches/Players to execute.

- Big23Questions


Yep, I’m just sayin, part of putting it all together is finding players and coaches that find a way to get it done. Have heart. Care. Part of assessing if you hire/sign them or not. Boston and Tampa seem to get it! Not saying it’s easy, just saying Dubas and Keefe have had many years to figure this out! I’m Not giving up on this group yet, but if they fail in the 1st round again……to me, Dubas and Keefe gotta go.

Ya man I hear what you’re saying. Maybe they both do need to go if this isn’t any different again. I’m just saying that in my opinion Dubas did his job enough. There are enough quality players mixed with enough high end talent to make this roster work. I feel like they have finally gotten that heavier type presence in their lineup now… I said earlier though that maybe his tender choices weren’t the greatest or at least the safest.

I like that you are still behind this roster. I wouldn’t give up on this team either. Real good team man - just need a few reps together you know

One last effort here eh bud!

1. All coaches change up lines and pairings
2. Some coaches do it a lot
3. Some coaches don’t do it enough
4. Not all coaches do it the same amount

These are my points and happen to be correct.

1. Every coach does it the same way

That is untrue.

Have a good night. Tape those ankles up.

This is his entire gimmick. Be snide and arrogant like he knows everything and you're too stupid to understand. When you counterpoint he will get rude and dismissive like a complete juvenile, that's where the "K" and "cool" and "have a good night" come in.

All day, every day.

And if you get tired of it and tell him to piss off, it'll instantaneously be a matter of you being "angry".

Don't let it make your head spin, don't waste too much of your breath, because it won't stop. Keep your stick on the ice and just hope someone with a psychology masters will take him off hockeybuzz and crack the code one day. 🤷

Dubas trading picks and young players left right and center to acquire 9 D but not the one that was worth acquiring from Arizona.

Looked like they could have used a Chychrun tonight.

Sad.

Or the Rangers. Or the Devils. Lots of obstacles in the East. And the Leafs lose most of the goaltending match-ups which means the team in front of the goalie is going to have to be on point every game.

Love Sammy. He is why we are where we are really but even Im not sure he is the answer. Not a lot of tested starters out there. Saros? Gibson? And have to be someone taking Murray on unless we can Tonya Harding him and put him on Robidas Island.

Bad game but 1/3 new team and Keefe has to figure things all out. Team is a bit unsettled clearly. After friday and with more practice with the new faces expecting things to settle more.
